I was a little confused because it says the theme is set to b&w but I assumed that was from last month, if I assumed wrong, please let me know.

Here is my entry..

The Sydney opera house is covered in huge white ceramic tiles, and this is a view you dont see of it very often.

// This is my second entry to do with Sydney LOL!

The theme is set to b&w but don't think it has to be a photo in b&w, it could be objects in those colours as well. Use your imagination!



I think flavah inadvertantly copied that over from the black and white competition thread. I suspect that shouldn't be in there. I'll let flavah confirm, but I don't really believe that is supposed to apply to this competition.

Nice photo btw. I've always liked that building.
